Walsh back in work on Mikael

RUBY WALSH was in action after racing at Leopardstown as he put Mikael D’Haguenet through his paces.

Walsh has been out of the competitive arena since suffering a broken in a fall on Corrick Bridge at Down Royal in November, just an hour after winning the JNwine.com Champion Chase on Kauto Star.

But with Cheltenham looming on the horizon, Walsh plans to be back race-riding this week, possibly at Taunton on Thursday.
